If one expected the Thomians to stage one of those mind shattering fight-backs in their Guneratne Trophy rugby game at Royal Complex yesterday, he would have been badly disappointed.
Royal retained the coveted Trophy for the fifth consecutive year with a staggering 38 points (4 goals, 2 tries) to 12 (1 goal, 1 try) win and have their sights firmly fixed on the Bradby Shield when they confront Trinity in the return at Bogambara next Saturday (June 26). |
